Jana Elmir

Some days, my heart feels heavier than I let anyone see. 🤍

I worry about the things he cannot yet tell me. The moments I might not understand. The challenges waiting for him in a world that isn’t always gentle with those who experience it differently.

And sometimes, my thoughts wander years ahead…

Will he be understood?
Will people be patient with him?
Will someone show him kindness when I’m not there?

These are the quiet fears I carry as a mother. The ones I don’t always speak about, but whisper to Allah in my du’as.

Then I remind myself…

The One who entrusted me with this beautiful soul loves him more than I ever could.

Allah knows his struggles before I see them. He hears what my child cannot always express. And He knows the future I’m so afraid of.

So I keep loving, keep advocating, keep making du’a.

And when the worries become too heavy, I remind my heart that I was never meant to carry them alone.

Alhamdulillah, for a faith that gives my worried heart somewhere to rest. 🤍

May Allah always surround our children with kindness, understanding and people who see the beauty in who they are.

Ameen. 🤲🏼
